15 Jan 2004 mysterious UFO photo taken in the North of the city Beveridge (Australia).

The appearance of this flying saucer excites the local authorities in the highest degree. In fact, the Municipality Wittlesey strongly recommends that you inform NASA and send the picture to NASA for further analysis.

The author of this photo - Roland Rosario, engineer in the railway transport sector in the same city. One Thursday, about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, he conducted a routine inspection of the railway crossing with one of their colleagues. That's when he grabbed his digital camera, not knowing that he will be removed.

"We have not seen anything and not heard while I was there. I did about 10 or 12 photos, facing the East and the West. Then I went back to the office and uploaded the images to your computer. Just then I noticed an object in one of the photos. I still don't know what it is. I showed it to my colleagues in the office, and nobody knew what it was. Some said that it was not like a bird, a plane, or even an insect in front of the lens."

Jim Linton , communications officer with the Whittlesea community, said the photograph was sent to the defence science and technology (DSTO) and the civil aviation authority (CAA). Today, the Council intends to send it to NASA and other relevant bodies in this area.

Original news

Le 15 janvier 2004, une mystérieuse photo, représentant un OVNI et prise dans le Nord de la ville de Beveridge (en Australie), a provoqué une véritable frénésie parmi les ufologues. Même les plus sceptiques continuent de se gratter la tête sur cet impossible cliché surnaturel …

L’apparition de cette soucoupe volante inquiète au plus haut point les autorités locales. D’ailleurs, le conseil municipal de Whittlesea envisage fortement d’informer la NASA et de lui faire parvenir l’image afin que cette dernière puisse subir une analyse approfondie.

L’auteur de cette photo s’appelle Roland Rozario et il est ingénieur dans le secteur de la circulation ferroviaire dans cette même ville. Ce jeudi-là, aux alentours de 14 heures de l’après-midi, ce dernier effectuait une vérification de routine d’un passage à niveau de chemin de fer avec l’un de ses collègues. C’est à ce moment-là qu’il a saisi son appareil numérique, sans se douter de ce qu’il allait prendre …

« Nous n'avons pas vu ou entendu quoi que cet après-midi lorsque nous étions là. J'ai pris environ 10 ou 12 photos, face à l'est et à l'ouest. »

Il poursuit :

« Ensuite, je suis revenu au bureau, j’ai téléchargé les images sur mon ordinateur et j’ai remarqué un objet sur l’une des photos. Je ne sais toujours pas ce que c'est. Je l'ai montré à mes collègues au bureau et personne ne savait pas ce que c'était. Quelques-uns ont dit que cela ne ressemblait pas à un oiseau, à un avion ou même à un insecte en face de l’objectif. »

Jim Linton, responsable de la communication du Conseil de Whittlesea, a déclaré que la photo avait été transmise à la DSTO (Defence Science and Technology Organisation) ainsi qu’à la CAA (Civil Aviation Authority). Aujourd’hui, le Conseil compte l’envoyer à la NASA et à d’autres autorités compétentes en ce domaine.

« En tant que conseillers municipaux, nous avons vu cette image et nous pensons qu'il en est de notre responsabilité de la transmettre aux autorités gouvernementales afin qu’elles l'expertisent. »

M. Linton a assuré au conseil que la photo n’avait été ni modifiée, ni altérée.

Peter Blake, prévisionniste au Bureau Météo, affirme que l’OVNI photographié ce jour-là ne correspond pas à un phénomène météorologique connu :

« Ce n'est certainement pas un ballon météo », précise-t-il.

Même les experts en soucoupe volante ont du mal à expliquer la photographie.

Le scientifique Bernard Wilson, employé au Victorian UFO Research Society, a déclaré qu’il avait besoin de plus d’informations afin de faire une évaluation complète et correcte de cette photographie :

« Il y a des éléments intéressants sur cette photo. Les reflets du soleil sur l'objet et les rails semblent être assez cohérents. »

Pour cet homme, le fait que l’objet volant non identifié soit flou vient probablement du fait qu’il se déplaçait à une vitesse vertigineuse.

--------------------------------------------------------

A mysterious photograph has sparked a UFO frenzy in the city's north. Both believers and skeptics are scratching their heads over a picture, snapped in Beveridge by a council officer last week.

 Whittlesea Council is considering informing NASA and has already sent the image to Australian authorities. The photographer, Whittlesea Council traffic engineer, Roland Rozario said he could not explain the digital photo, which shows a small round object zooming through the top right side of the frame. Mr Rozario said he and a colleague were doing a routine audit of a railway level crossing about 2pm on Thursday, January 15. 

"We didn't see or hear anything when we were there," he said. "I took about 10 or 12 photos, facing east and west. 

"Then I came back to the office, downloaded the images and noticed an object in one photo. I still don't know what it is. I passed it around the office and people didn't know what it was. A few said it didn't look like a bird, an aircraft or even a bug in front of the camera." 

Mr Rozario said a train passed through the crossing just seconds after the photograph was taken and believes a passenger may have spotted something in the sky. Whittlesea Council's communications officer, Jim Linton, said the image to the Chief Defense Scientist, Defense Science and Technology Organization and the Civil Aviation Authority.He said the council was considering referring it to NASA and other authorities. 

"As a municipal council we have this image and we believe it is responsible to pass it on to the Government authorities who have the expertise and let them work it out," he said. 

Mr Linton said staff assured the council the photograph was not altered or tampered with. 

"We're not making any claim on it. We're looking for some expert who can look at it and tell us. Maybe there will never be an answer." 

Weather bureau senior forecaster Peter Blake said the photograph did not look like anything meteorological. 

"It almost looks like a plane from the rear. It is certainly not a weather balloon," Mr Blake said. Local flying saucer experts also struggled to explain the photograph. 
Victorian UFO Research Society scientific adviser Bernard Wilson said the group needed more information in order to make a full assessment. 

"There are some interesting aspects to this photo. The sun reflections from the object and the rails appear to be fairly consistent," he said. "There appears to be some motion blur to the left of the image which might indicate a fast-moving object."

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Objects in motion, captured on a long exposure

Most often this artifact is called skayfish if the lens gets a passing bird or insect. It is based on the discrepancy between the speed of the video and the frequency of the flapping of insect wings. Essentially, each video drops a few strokes of the wings of an insect, which when viewed looks like "arrow", provided with long protuberances. The motion of the insect by its translucent body seems to "boom" and vibration of the wings give the appearance of bumps.

Birds

Due to the peculiarities of the bird's flight, it is possible to capture a moment in the photo when an ordinary bird will resemble a "classic" UFO in shape.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

The appearance of the object and the witness description suggests that it is trapped in the frame of a bird flying past at the moment of shooting. Its silhouette is blurred because of fast motion. The top ridge of the object, probably a wing of this bird.
